Where to stay in Uga

Uga is a small, quiet village in Lanzarote's wine country, so most visitors stay nearby and travel in. Puerto del Carmen is the most popular base, with plenty of hotels and easy access to the rest of the island. If you prefer somewhere closer to the local atmosphere, Playa Blanca is a relaxed resort town just a short drive away.

For a more rural feel, staying in or around Yaiza puts you right on the doorstep of Uga itself, with a handful of smaller hotels and rural properties that suit the pace of this part of Lanzarote well.
